The AMG modding begins.... - Phil01 - 18-01-2020

jimxms Aye, basically this stuff:

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/GROWROOM-REFLECTIVE-ALUMINIUM-FOIL-DUCT-TAPE-HEAT-AND-MOISTURE-PROOF-7-5CM-X-50M-/140621211210?pt=UK_HomeGarden_Garden_PlantsSeedsBulbs_JN&hash=item20bdad664a

Whether or not it will make much difference I'm not sure. But its worth a punt as the carbon airboxes for my car are over a grand :/

The real trouble area though is the intake manifolds (bits with the AMG on them). I'm not quite sure what I can do to lower their temps. I did want to powder coat them but I think this may insulate the heat rather than letting their cast aluminium construction radiate it out?

Jim have you been buying dodgy stuff from that ebay link, take a look at his other items :ohmy:
